Parker Compax3 Fluid T40

Setting up Compax3 C3F_T40
46 192-121102 N04 June 2008
Components of Compax3F:
 4 controllers for 2 axes
 Main axis position controller (Main axis: Pos Control 1)
 Main axis pressure difference / force controller (Main axis: PressureForce
Control 1)
 Auxiliary axis position controller (Auxiliary axis: Pos Control 2)
 Auxiliary axis pressure difference / force controller (Auxiliary axis:
PressureForce Control 2)
 4 Conditioning Chains for the liearisation of the valves and cylinders
 The axis assignment is made via the valve configuration (Valve configuration)
 For the linearisation, pressures can be made available to the Conditioning
Chains (fixed or measured pressures: pA, pB, p0, pT).
 The Conditioning Chains are fixedly connected to the analog outputs.
 Interfaces for actual position values
 Pos Feedback 2 or configurable analog interface for the auxiliary axis
(Configuration switch)
 Pos Feedback 2 or configurable analog interface for the main axis
(Configuration switch)
 6 analog interfaces for pressures or force (or position)
 Assignment to the axis via configuration
 Assignment to the Conditioning Chain via the configuration (axis assignment,
valve assignment)
 Setpoint predefinition via IEC61131-3 modules
 Static (1), (2), or dynamic (dynamic) (3) switching via IEC61131-3 modules
4.1.3. Drive configuration
 Please select the number of drives (1 or 2) to be controlled (by open or closed
loop) with Compax3F.
 Physical system: Selection of the unit for the force or pressure control
 The unit for force is Newton and a force is controlled
 For differential pressure the unit is Bar or PSI (depending on the unit system)
and a differential pressure is controlled.
 Unit system: Global selection of units for the entry and display of data
 Metric (SI): N, Bar, m
 Imperial (US/UK): N, PSI, inch
 Inversion of the direction: Inverts the direction of movement of the drives.
AB
Definition of the sense of direction (without direction inversion): In positive
direction, the cap end (A) of a cylinder is charged with pressure.
